Creating Your Ideal State

Your country just overthrew its dictator, and you are the newly elected President. Unfortunately, due to the divisions in the country and the years of war, economic, military, and political structures are non-existent. A group of loyalists to the old dictator have been detonating bombs, murdering civilians, assassinating leaders, and terrorizing towns with help from a neighboring country’s dictator.

Bechdel, Alison. Fun Home. Seattle: Mariner Books, 2007.

Submit a rough draft of Essay #3 for credit.

Choose one topic from the choices below and compose a 500-700 word essay, including three credible and cited sources:

Write a comparative character analysis of Alison and Bruce Bechdel; make sure the essay addresses why and how the comparisons/contrasts are significant.
On page 125, she wonders what would happen if everyone told the truth. Does she tell the truth in this memoir? If her use of figures like Gatsby is an effort to tell the truth, why does she choose to tell the truth through these metaphoric texts?
Bechdel describes her own style as one of “cool aesthetic distance” (67). What does she mean by that? Do you feel that is true about this memoir? After all, she does portray her own blood spattered on the page…
Fun Home is in many ways a book about identity; write an analytical comparison of Alison’s self-realization and self-definition with another figure or character from a text we’ve read this semester.
Analyze the role of the Bechdel’s literal house and its metaphorical significance.
Analyze gender roles in Fun Home.

The challenges of leadership practice in the 21st century

The challenges of leadership practice in the 21st century

One of the most important challenges for current and future business leaders involves finding the thinking space and courage to keep the long view in mind for their organisations.
Leaders are increasingly in the public eye, with numerous stakeholder groups enforcing their entitlements. This challenge becomes increasingly important and difficult as business practitioners rise through the ranks of their organisations and take on more general management and strategic leadership roles.
You are required to continue further exploration of the ideas and issues as it pertains to leadership. You will explore challenges and opportunities to improve leadership practice and analyse the advantages of effective leadership practice. You will also evaluate how leaders manage teams and how teams shape the requirements for effective leadership.

• Reflect on the specific challenges of global leadership.
• Consider how each of your chosen cited articles discusses the meaning, influence and importance of leadership.

In an approximately 500-word response, address the following issues/questions:
• Analyse the challenges and opportunities to improve leadership practice with regards to your identified global challenge (difficulties involved in communicating, motivating and managing within the new geography due to language and cultural barriers and finally monitoring and tracking performance as the distance factor severely challenges same). In your analysis, explain the advantages effective leadership practice would bring to the meeting of that challenge. Additionally, explain how each of your chosen articles relates to your analysis.

• In formulating your Key Concept Exercise, consider the following questions:
o Why did you choose this global challenge and these two articles?
o What specific leadership practices and behaviours might help you overcome those global challenges and create opportunities?
o How do the two leadership articles relate to the challenge you have identified and how can they help meet the challenge?
o How can leadership practice be improved in general?

When writing your responses, you should synthesise the theory with real-world experience and use examples of the theories in action in a real organisation about which you have read or one in which you have worked.

I HAVE CHOSEN THE FIRST TWO ATTACHED ARTICLES – HOWEVER IF THEY YOU THINK THEY DO NOT RELATE TO THE FOLLOWING GLOBAL CHALLENGES – THEN CHOOSE TWO AS PER THE FOLLOWING:

one peer-reviewed academic journal article and one professional or trade journal article . These articles should be related to leadership theories and frameworks (the academic article) and leadership practices (the professional or trade journal) that you think are relevant to one of the global challenges AS FOLLOWS: difficulties involved in communicating, motivating and managing within the new geography due to language and cultural barriers OR finally monitoring and tracking performance as the distance factor severely challenges same. The articles must have been published within the last two years.
